Description of problem:
========================
On RHEL6 installed with glusterfs-3.8.4-13 build, when we start glustereventsd service, it fails with a traceback even though the service is actually started (ps -ef confirms that). An avc is logged with tclass:udp_socket.
>> type=AVC msg=audit(1486457211.185:274780): avc:  denied  { name_bind } for  pid=32761 comm="python" src=24009 scontext=unconfined_u:system_r:glusterd_t:s0 >> tcontext=system_u:object_r:port_t:s0 tclass=udp_socket

Once we hit this, we are unable to stop/start glustereventsd service, as it fails with the error mentioned below:
>> [root@dhcp35-91 selinux_policy]# service glustereventsd status
>> glustereventsd dead but subsys locked

There is a boolean 'allow_ypbind' (renamed: nis_enabled) which when enabled helps us to not hit this issue. Having said that, enabling the boolean is just a work around, and BZ 1411743 has been raised by Milos Malik requesting for a fix for the same.

Marking this BZ as a dependent of BZ 1411743, so that it can be tracked from RHGS-end.
